So it's... real. That is such great news!
I thought you might have that response. You're not the only one:"This is the only good thing the Kardashians have done for society,"went one viral response to the news.
Ha,good one.
I hate to break it to you,though:even more people are sad about the news.
What?! Why? How?
As another fan wrote,it's"the end of an era". This is a TV show (and family) that,for better or worse,has defined over a decade of pop culture. While the E! series might've started as an opportunistic tool for self-promotion following the mega success of MTV'sThe Osbournes,it's gone on to redefine reality TV success – and spawned at least two billionaires.
Sure. And it introduced us to Scott Disick.
Of course,can't forget about the Lord.
Are people even still watching it?
Surprisingly,they are. According to 2019-2020 figures,KUWTK remains one of the top-100 highest-rated TV shows in the US,which is remarkable considering it's just about to launch its 19th season. It also remains a global sensation whose rerun rights will attract a pretty penny even after it's done.
So why are they ending it?
Eldest Kardashian sibling and fan favourite Kourtney had already announced her intent to not return to the show for a new season. Some fans are speculating it might've signalled the beginning of the end,and forced the production's hand.
